How to Repair Windows 10 Image using DISM
Published by
Information
If a Windows image becomes unserviceable, you can use the Deployment

Imaging and Servicing Management (DISM) tool to update the files and
correct the problem.
Brink
For example, you would use DISM to fix Windows component store
corruption when a sfc /scannow command is unable to repair corrupted or
modified system files because the component store (source) is corrupted.
SFC should be able to repair the files afterwards.

Note
The DISM /Cleanup-Image tool saves it's log files in the file locations below. To
be able to view these logs, you would need to copy them from the locations
below to your desktop, then open them from your desktop.
C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log
C:\Windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log
CONTENTS:
Option One: To Run "DISM /Cleanup-Image" Tool in Command Prompt

Option Two: To Run "DISM /Cleanup-Image" Tool in PowerShell
OPTION ONE
To Run "DISM /Cleanup-Image" Tool in Command Prompt

1. Open an elevated command prompt.
2. Do step3, step 4, step 5 (recommended), step 6, or step 7 below for what DISM command
you would like to use.
3. To Use DISM /CheckHealth Command

Note
You would use /CheckHealth to only check whether the image has been
flagged as corrupted by a failed process and whether the corruption can be
repaired. This is just a quick way to see if corruption currently exists, and to
inform you if there is corruption. This does not fix anything or create a log.
This will finish running almost instantly.
A) In the elevated command prompt, copy and paste the command below, press Enter,
and go to step 8 below. (see screenshot below)
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
19-Mar-16 4:41 PM
3 of 21
4. To Use DISM /ScanHealth Command

Note
You would use /ScanHealth to scan the image for component store
corruption. This option does not fix any corruption. It only checks for
component store corruption and records that corruption to the log file. This
can take around 5-10 minutes to finish. It will stay at 20% for a while before
continuing.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
19-Mar-16 4:41 PM
4 of 21
5. To Use DISM /RestoreHealth Command

Note
(recommended) You would use /RestoreHealth to scan the image for

component store corruption, perform repair operations automatically, and
records that corruption to the log file. This can take around 10-15 minutes
up to a few hours to finish depending on the level of corruption. It will stay
at 20% for a while before continuing.
If this command fails, then you can do step 6 or step 7 below instead.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
19-Mar-16 4:41 PM
5 of 21
6. To Use DISM /RestoreHealth /Source:wim Command

Note
You would use /Source with /RestoreHealth to specify the location of an

install.wim file as the source of known good versions of files that can be
used for the repair. This can take around 10-15 minutes up to a few hours
to finish depending on the level of corruption. It will stay at 20% for a while
before continuing.
This can be useful if step 5 above was not able to repair the Windows
image (component store).
The install.wim file will be in the Sources folder of a mounted Windows 10

ISO from Microsoft TechBench (use ISO from OPTION ONE at link) file.
If you have an install.esd file instead of install.wim, then you would need
to use step 7 below instead.
A) In the elevated command prompt, type the command below you want to use, press
Enter, and go to step 8 below. (see screenshot below)
file:1
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:Full Path to install.wim
OR
19-Mar-16 4:41 PM
6 of 21
(To prevent DISM from using Windows Update for online images)

file:1 /limitaccess
For example:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:D:\sources

\install.wim:1 /limitaccess
7. To Use DISM /RestoreHealth /Source:esd Command

Note

install.esd file as the source of known good versions of files that can be
before continuing.
The install.esd file will be in the Sources folder of a mounted Windows 10

ISO from Media Creation Tool (use ISO from OPTION TWO at link) file.
If you have an install.wim file instead of install.esd, then you would need
to use step 6 above instead.
file:1
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:esd:Full Path to install.esd
19-Mar-16 4:41 PM
7 of 21
OR

file:1 /limitaccess
For example:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:esd:C:\$Windows.~BT

\Sources\Install.esd:1 /limitaccess
OR
(USB from Media Creation Tool where E is drive letter of USB)
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:esd:E:\Sources\Install.esd:1

/limitaccess
8. If you did step 5, step 6, or step 7 above, it is recommended to restart the computer to
fully apply.
OPTION TWO
To Run "DISM /Cleanup-Image" Tool in PowerShell

1. Open an elevated Windows PowerShell.
2. Do step3, step 4, step 5 (recommended), step 6, or step 7 below for what DISM command
you would like to use.

Hi
I have an inquiry :
If I wish "To Use DISM /RestoreHealth /Source:wim Command" (step 6) to
restore the health of my 10240 installation, can I do this? Is it possible, I
mean?
19-Mar-16 4:41 PM

And if I have the official 10162 ISO on my desktop, mounted so found on

drive G: , which is the full path I should use?
So, in my case the command is :
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:G:\sources
?
Because when I run it this way it says that it cannot find the Source..

Hello Joanne,
You can use the command below from step 5 option one to do so unless
DISM is unable to repair the Windows image from the default source.
Since it says it can't find the specified source using step 6, your ISO may
have been created with .esd instead of .wim. If so, give step 7 a try to see it
works.

Yep, in that case, use the command below to run the DISM command from
the install.wim source on your G: drive.
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:G:\sources

I just did it but it cannot find the source files. I mounted the official 10162
ISO so the G:\ drive was created. Then I run the command. But it doesn't
work.

In that case, you may need to refresh Windows 10 instead.

To upload the CBS.log, you would need to copy it to your desktop first, ZIP
it, then upload the ZIP.

Thank you for your support, Brink!
Please, allow me to ask you one simple question, before reading that entire
tutorial :
- I do not care at all what will happen with my Win 10 TP installation, I do
not care wiping everything out of it - because I've not installed anything
important- but what I DO care tremendously about is my Win 7 Home
Premium installation, it being in a Dual boot system with 10, on this
computer. So, I ask : this refreshing or whatever, can it affect my Win 7 in
ANY way? Should I unplug my Win 7 SSD before attempting this refreshing?
I would clean install this Win 10 for sure but it is this special occasion now.
MS does not offer an official 10240 ISO. So clean-installing would bring me
in waiting for 10240 again, etc etc...
So?
Oh! And one last thing... Until a couple of hours ago I was sitting with 10240
untouched, waiting to get updated. But I got bored so I performed a full
Disk Cleanup, system files included, AND I have deleted all the files in the
SoftwareDistribution/Downloads folder. Will this Refresh still work after all
this?
